AG’s office touts win in concealed-handgun case

AG’s office touts win in concealed-handgun case – Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman is hailing a “major court victory” in defense of New York’s requirement that anyone wishing to carry a concealed handgun in public must obtain a special license to do so. The decision was handed down in the case of Kachalsky, et al. v.

The AG’s office said the decision essentially states that individuals don’t have a constitutional right to carry a gun in public.
